The Last Poem



The Last Poem

After so many years
The day came
The poet sat down to write
With his pen in hand, he tried
Struggling with his feelings
Trying to remember the girl he loved
The games he played as a kid
The dreams he had for his life
And the song he heard the night before
Still, nothing inspired him
After a thousand poems
A hundred stories and books
He did not know what to say
He was just an empty vessel
Surrounded by skin without a soul
At that moment he set down the pen
And the poet never wrote again
